Talk:List of Flamingo Road episodes

Recent edits
I have noticed that my additions to the "episode list" have been vigorously edited. Having read the Manual for Style for television episodes, I feel I should clarify my reasoning for the edits. Given the large number of episodes in the series, I reasoned that adding season by season credits plus guest cast information may form the basis for the Dynasty, Knots Landing and Falcon Crest episode guides to be converted into season by season guides along the same lines as Dallas, which has not only an episode list, but also a more extensive season by season guide. For reasons of completism, I also include Flamingo Road (also produced by Lorimar) amongst the 1980's soaps. I have noticed that The Simpsons seasons guides does include guest cast information inside the episode tables so I do not feel that these additions are in breach of editing guidelines. I hope my contributions might form the template for Dynasty ( including The Colbys), Knots Landing and Falcon Crest to receive the Dallas treatment on Wikipedia, which will provide the Wikipedia reader with a more substantial overview of these shows, and in turn offer a more informative reading experience. Thanks for reading. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.4.178.56 (talk) 13:31, 22 March 2017 (UTC)


 * Thanks for opening this discussion, I appreciate that. List of The Simpsons episodes, List of Dallas (1978 TV series) episodes and List of Dallas (2012 TV series) episodes do not include cast and producer information. If you are referring to season articles like Dallas (1978 TV series) (season 3), that is a completely different kind of article. I would caution against creating such season articles for the prime time soaps, however, unless you are intending to add more information than these credits, and with sources. An episode list with cast for each season and nothing else substantial would be considered redundant of the main article and the episode list, and would be redirected/deleted as such. Guest cast in episode tables is controversial and exists in some articles, but will be a problem when we seek to promote these lists to Good or Featured status. Lastly, it really doesn't help that you add so many red links and disambiguation links. For example, Gordon Thomson is a bad link because it leads to a disambiguation page, you should be adding Gordon Thomson (actor), which gives you Gordon Thomson.— TAnthonyTalk 14:22, 22 March 2017 (UTC)


 * For the sake of this discussion and archival purposes, this is the latest reverted version of the added cast and producer info. Though not appropriate for this list at this time, this information may be useful in future articles.— TAnthonyTalk 15:32, 23 March 2017 (UTC)
